Has anyone tried the Mormon church's Personal Ancestral File (PAF) genealogy program on System 7.0? I called them this morning and they told me it was incompatible, but admitted they hadn't tried it. They plan no upgrade version as yet. If you are as steamed about this as I am, or if you have answers to some of these questions, or if you have the same questions, please e-mail me directly. Thanks.

At least it brought up the records and navigated my tree fine. So for now I would wait and see. I will try to test a little more extensively when I have a chance. I'll post followup information if anything bad turns up.

Regarding the question on Personal Ancestral File (PAF) and System 7.0, I've a friend who was part of the PAF development team and who also works at Apple. I'll pass the question along for his comments... Ray RayB@cup.portal.com "I'm full of opinions...none of which belong to anyone."
